ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the results of different operative methods for old acromioclavicular dislocation. Methods Forty three patients with old acromioclavicular dislocation were treated with three different operative methods:
1)open reduction plus Kirschner wire fixation (9 cases); 2)open reduction plus reconstruction of acromioclavicular ligament (14 cases) and 3)open reduction plus modified Dewar s operation (20 cases). After surgery, the subjective symptoms of the arm, muscular contraction power, function of the shoulder joint and space of acromioclavicular joint in 43 cases were followed up for an average 4.8 years. Results The excellent results following three operative methods were seen in 33% , 50% and 74% respectively. There was no significant difference between Kirschner wire fixation and reconstruction of acromioclavicular ligament (P > 0.05). Modified Dewar's operation was better compared with Kirschner wire fixation and reconstruction of acromioclavicular ligament (P< 0.05). Conclusion A satisfactory surgical procedure for treatment of old acromioclavicular dislocation should accomplish the following points removal of scar tissue and intra articular cartilaginous fragments, reconstruction of joint stability and effective internal fixation until complete healing of the ligament structures.
